Toolmonger: Golden Nozzle car wash customer John A. O’Leary was riding through the car wash when he noticed something was terribly wrong. Yards away, fighting for her life inside the car wash was 19-year-old employee Stephanie Carpluk. The lone attendant had taken a short-cut through the car rails and her scarf had become ensnared in […]

Fired from the pocket?

Transferable Stoner.

Then you can buy a transferable GE M134 mini gun. You know, one of these.

James has an article at the Carnival on the pros and cons of packing in your pocket. By the way, I’m in the market for a pocket gun. I’ve been perusing the articles at Mouseguns. I’m thinking about the Kel-Tec 9MM. Any thoughts, dear reader, on a good mouse gun?

Leaked photos and specs at reddit: Looks like an M&P, with no rails. Pocket 9 sized. Maybe even single stack. Called it. More here and here.

Do want: Trail Judge Mare’s leg in 45 and .410. Pocket 9: Kahr CM9 AR-15ish that takes 1911 magazines.

I am now sans .380. Moving to a pocket 9mm. I have a PM9 as a loner and I like that I can hop on Amazon and order a holster for it. Holster hasn’t arrived yet so I’ve not got to try out pocket carrying a larger gun. But it handles and feels nice. Update: […]

No secret that I really like my Kel-Tec P3AT with Lasergrips. But I’m thinking about switching to a pocket 9. I know folks like their PF9s and some folks pocket carry them. I figure the switch would mean one less type of ammo to stock up on and, of course, a 9mm has more oomph […]

Over the holidays, the family and I went to NYC. Only occasionally did I get a whiff of piss and sewage. Seems to have cleaned up a bit since my last trip there. And, the only thing I really like about NYC, is the food. Had some good stuff. My daughter wanted to go because […]

It’s from 2011 but Ben left it in comments: An Alternate Look at Handgun Stopping Power. Basically, it asserts that handgun rounds mostly suck. A rifle is the way to go. But good luck carrying one.

11 new pocket pistols. That last one is a head-scratcher.

What’s in your pockets?

Bloomberg discovers the Office of Civilian Marksmanship Program. Freaks a little: At a time when Americans are sharply divided over the place of firearms in society, the U.S. government has, in effect, subsidized the metamorphosis of CMP into a deep-pocketed, nationwide evangelist for youth gun culture. The group has survived and thrived, despite repeated attempts […]

Are Revolvers Pass? I have a revolver. A Ruger Match Champion. It is hands-down my favorite gun to shoot at the range. I’d never seriously consider carrying it every day. It’s heavy and only holds six shots. The M&P is fairly light and holds 18 BBs. I’ve considered a pocket revolver but I’m thinking a […]

So, I mentioned my SpyderCo Delica’s clip fell off after I bumped into a door. Well, the other one did it too: I ordered a titanium replacement for the other one. I’m happy with it so far but it took over a month for it to be delivered.

AL senate candidate Roy Moore, while on the campaign trail, decided to pull out his gun and show it to everyone. I cannot tell from the video but it appears he pulled the gun from a pocket. I hope he’s using a holster. But even if he is, he shouldn’t go waving a gun around. […]

I concur: 15 years ago, the internet was an escape from the real world. Now, the real world is an escape from the internet. — Give Me Internet (@GiveMeInternet) August 30, 2017 I recently removed all blogging and social media software from my phone. To access any of it requires me to sit in front […]

Did the Single-Stack Nine Kill the Carry Revolver? A fair point, I think, for the civilian market and police. Not for me. I had a single stack 9mm for a while (an Shield with a laser). But I found that when I wanted to go smaller, I really wanted to go small and pocket carry. […]

Running a Thompson Sunday Smiff Savage .25 ACP Prototype Pocket Pistols

The sheer pants-shitting hysteria in this piece on what Americans carry in their pocket is amusing. Here’s what I presume is a grown up adult person afraid of inanimate objects. Via Tam, with completely loses its shit at the sight of a lockback pocket knife of the variety usually given to Texans on their eighth […]

First, we had a Deadpool holster. Now, it’s Deadpool’s gun. 19th century pocket pistols

In silly TV gun handling lulz, this is a bad guy in the TV show Preacher pulling a cocked, single action revolver out of his pocket:

Heizer Defense Introduces the PKO-45. A 5+1 .45ACP that its only 0.8 inches thin. And the barrel is under the guide rod, which they say helps recoil. So, a pocket 45? SilencerCo Salvo 12 Shotgun Suppressor

In Kydex. Seriously, somebody out there has to make something for this.

Sebastian posits that most people, even gun nuts, do not carry at the beach. And that the Tunisia beach massacre could be a terrorist template used here. I always have a gun with me at the beach. Because the beach usually has a bunch of drunk people on it and thinks can go tango uniform […]

One fine holster. I have a holster, mag carrier and belt from The Holster Site. Highly recommended. Schouboe Prototype .45 Pistols Heizer Defense Pocket AK in 7.62x39mm. Ok, then.

And don’t leave a loaded Glock in a purse that’s full of stuff: Franklin County Sheriff’s Office officials say a woman was shot in both legs and her boyfriend shot through his hand after her gun went off in her purse Saturday afternoon. Lt. Phillip Young said the woman’s Glock went off while the couple […]

And don’t carry a gun in your back pocket: According to the store owner, the gun accidental fired as the man attempted to retrieve a handgun from his back pocket. The man injured his buttocks but his injuries were very minor the owner explained.
